Mirrors
scutter - 5/4/05 at 06:22 AM

Gents, Due to the low nature of my scuttle and high rear arches, my CBR mirrors hardly give any field of vision.

I know I can get long stem versions, but are there any other mirrors that are longer? that dont require an angled mounting plate to get the at the right angle.

Many Thanks Dan.

Ps CBR short stem mirrors for sale £25

long stem r1 and bandit give a good height from the examples i've seen. there is a guy on ebay who seems to sell pattern ones at reasonable prices.

fozzies car has the bandit type, j30fos has the long stem r1 (beware there are a short stem type too) check these people's photoarchive and search on bandit or r1 and mirrors should give the part no's or years of bikes..

You could always make an angled spacer to lift them up a bit.

try bykerbitz.co.uk

I got a pair of carbon effect suzuki gsxr 750 mirrors (same as westfield supply) for £25 (west charge £55 !).

Maybe long stem R1's will do it ??

Cheers gents, got hold of nylon block to make spacers from a man i know, If it's still not enough then I'll get the long stem CBR mirrors, any idea which models they were fitted to?

Any clues on how best to shape raw nylon block?
